A very hot condiment that goes well with meats and poultry. I use chipotles for this recipe but you could use almost any dried pepper you wish to make it hotter or milder.
Ingredients:
1 cup dried chipotle pepper
6 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon peanut oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Directions:
1. Place chilies in a bowl and cover with very hot water.
2. Let them steep for 15 to 20 minutes until soft.
3. Drain chiles and discard water.
4. Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree till smooth.
5. If it is too thick thin with more lime juice.
6. Can be stored for 2 weeks covered in refrigerator.
